SynciOS - iOS and Android manager

[webfork]

First mentioned in this software promo, I was looking for some alternative to an ongoing terrible experience with iTunes.

It unfortunately requires iTunes to connect to iOS devices, but so do all programs like this.

Syncios is a media player, online video downloader, mobile data transfer, handset ringtone maker, and mobile device management software developed by Anvsoft Inc. It is used to play, download, and organize digital audio and video; transfer data between mobile phones, tablets and personal computers running the OS X or Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Status: Not portable. Writes to \USER\AppData\Roaming\SyncDroid and \USER\.android

Caveat: It's 200 megs

Does it actually work? Unknown; I'll setup a VM to install iTunes on and hopefully post here again.

EDIT: I was avoiding installing iTunes on my main machine because it's big and leaves a lot of junk behind, but another reason to run iTunes inside a VM: to help resist ongoing security issues.

It is not totally free. For advanced features, you need to purchase a pro license instead.

Besides this program, there are also a couple of good alternatives:

Yeah I fought with this program for a bit and then had to give up. I honestly can't remember at this stage if it was because I couldn't get it working or the feature I was going for was behind a paywall.
